Chapter 504 Bad news
"You picked a weird time to learn that," Rain frowned.
"I didn't pick a weird time. It took me all these years to learn it... although I had a bit more time to practice now since the kids can be watched by Father and Mother as well," Terra explained.
Rain didn't notice that, but Terra was also training hard... it was hard to notice it since she was trying to learn that technique while also using her usual healing skills. Basically, Terra had to control her mana to a point that the mana would follow her will no matter what.
"So, you decide to make the spell activate with your willpower at the moment when it is needed?" Rain asked.
"No, you have to give an order to make the spell activate under certain conditions," Terra explained. "Like, activate when you start to bleed. I just learned it, though, and it only lasts for one hour. I have to improve it."
A spell that works based on conditions... that was interesting. Rain asked if Terra could activate the same spell several times on the same target, but she couldn't yet. She learned the spell that day.
"I will try that as well, and we can share our findings later," Rain said. "Anyway, let's enjoy the party and stay with the kids."
That news could add a lot of options for the group, but if it were easy, the martial artists would have done it... and now they have been exterminated. At least Rain and Terra learned a bit of their fighting style... even though their main path was still unknown.
The next day, Rain noticed that Danny and Annie seemed way more cheerful than usual, so the party had served its purpose.
Seara also could call in for reinforcements as well, so things looked fine enough.
While considering that possibility and also studying the technique that Terra just learned, Rain started to feel more tired mentally as of late... perhaps he needed a break. Maybe if he wreaks havoc on the beast people's territory, they will give up once and for all. However, just when Rain was about to take the next step... Some unexpected visitors showed up, they were Asche and Liss.
"Auntie!" Annie said while showing an unusual large smile.
"Why do you have to call me auntie... call me big Sis Asche," Asche said while facepalming.
"Did something happen? You guys haven't visited us here in half a year," Terra asked while trying to hold back her laugh.
"... Bad news, all the soldiers that were being watched just vanished overnight yesterday," Liss said.
Everyone opened their eyes widely when they heard that... how was that possible? Twenty thousand soldiers disappeared overnight without leaving any traces? That was insanity... everyone looked at Rain for an explanation, but he just shrugged.
"It seems that something big is going to happen soon," Rain said while looking at the horizon.
One day later, they were informed by an astonished Seara... the magic people were marching toward their territory. Not to make more friends, since they had an army of twenty thousand on their side.
